Had a to-go cup of this at the DavidsTea in Chelsea this weekend, so I didn’t get to sniff the dry leaf. It tasted amazing though.
Didn’t get any salt, per se, but I could definitely taste the caramel. This tea was smooth, creamy and a tiny bit malty. Just overall yumminess. The caramel was strongest at the end of each sip; in fact it lingered after the sip was complete. A lingering flavor of delicious creamy caramel. I think the aftertaste was the best part, by far.
A tea fanatic who works in the tech sector, I purchase most of my tea online. The numerical ratings are to help me remember which teas I should re-order. 85+ means it’s worth a re-purchase. (If I ever get through all of the new ones I want to try!)
It’s pretty obvious from my tealog, but I have special place in my heart for flavored blacks and good rooibos. I also love oolongs, but apparently have expensive taste in that area, so I don’t purchase them too often. Learning to appreciate green tea, but not a fan of overly vegetal ones. Whites make a great iced tea.
I love to try new teas and will sample most anything once. Although I’ll usually pass on Earl Grey or super floral blends.
I drink my tea with no additions, unless otherwise noted in the review.

This is good to know. I have it in my cupboard, but haven’t tried it yet. Was a little worried about the “salted” part of it. Glad to hear that it’s not salty. Will have to try it out soon.
